Core Ledger

Core Ledger is the sovereignty layer: go-blockchain, a CryptoNote privacy chain; go-lns, a full sidechain running the Lethean Name System for .lthn names; and go-dns, a .lthn resolver that answers with no ICANN dependency.

What ships with it

A privacy main chain

go-blockchain is a native-Go CryptoNote chain (Zano-forked): ring signatures, stealth addresses, confidential transactions, and ~2-minute proof-of-work blocks.

Names on a full sidechain

go-lns is a full sidechain to go-blockchain running the Lethean Name System — auction-based .lthn registration (open, bid, reveal, register), forked from Handshake.

DNS without ICANN

go-dns is an authoritative resolver for the .lthn TLD, served from the main chain and the LNS sidechain with DNSSEC — queries never fall back upstream.

Sovereign end to end

Value, names, and resolution all live on infrastructure you can run yourself.

INTERFACE

Surface area

Main chain
go-blockchain

CryptoNote full node, HD wallets, P2P (Levin), JSON-RPC, and mining.

Name sidechain
go-lns

A full sidechain for .lthn registration, covenants, and VPN gateway discovery.

DNS
go-dns

Authoritative .lthn resolver (UDP/TCP 53) plus an HTTP lookup API.

QUICKSTART

How .lthn resolves

A CryptoNote privacy main chain (go-blockchain), a full name sidechain (go-lns), and a .lthn DNS resolver (go-dns) — all native Go.

How .lthn resolves 
.lthn names live on the go-lns sidechain, anchored to the go-blockchain main chain.
go-dns resolves them with no ICANN fallback — resolve or NXDOMAIN.
REFERENCE

Names, value, and DNS — sovereign by design.
